Witmer Public Safety Group Inc., a small business specializing in firefighting equipment and public safety supplies, was awarded a $31,062.35 purchase order by the Department of the Navy on May 8, 2025, for the procurement of specialized firefighting and thermal imaging equipment. The contract, which is a 100% small business set-aside, requires delivery of twenty SuperPass 5 Stand-Alone Audio Pass devices, one custom USB data download cable, and seven Teledyne-Flir Model K45 handheld naval firefighting thermal imagers. These name-brand products were solicited through Request for Quotation N62789-25-Q-0011 by Naval Sea Systems Command and must be delivered to Poquonock Bridge, Connecticut, with an ultimate completion date of August 7, 2025.
The procurement supports naval firefighting and emergency response operations at Naval Submarine Base New London. Witmer Public Safety Group Inc., based in Coatesville, Pennsylvania, is well-positioned to fulfill this requirement given its extensive track record as a federal supplier of firefighting personal protective equipment and emergency response technologies. The company maintains a significant Indefinite Delivery Contract with the Defense Logistics Agency Distribution and has demonstrated capability in delivering critical safety equipment to multiple Department of Defense components. This purchase order award reinforces the Navy's investment in advanced thermal imaging and communication systems necessary for submarine base fire suppression and emergency preparedness operations.
